Wong indicated that they were ahead of schedule at that point, but then they encountered <br />the environmental problems. <br />Wong stated that 300 tons of soil was hauled away, as a result of the testing that had been done <br />on the soil. Wong stated that, at this point, no more excavation is necessary, and that they were <br />just doing base -grading and utilities. He added that they anticipated being finished with the <br />utility work by the end of next week. <br />Commissioner Ganley asked how much base -grading was left. Wong stated that about 25% of <br />base -grading remained; with the ball -field included it was a total of about 35%. Wong added <br />that, once they are done with base -grading, and if the weather holds, the process moves quite <br />quickly. <br />Wong stated that the good thing about the project is that it is big, but not complicated, with <br />details concentrated in one area. <br />Wong indicated that the side hill should be done next week, at which point they would begin to <br />construct the building. <br />Chair Jindra asked about the practice football field, and if it was included in the remaining <br />percentage of base -grading to be done. Wong indicated that the practice field was included in the <br />35% total. <br />Chair Jindra asked about drain -tile, and their previous conversation. Wong stated that, prior to <br />installing the final base, the contractors are aware that they need to have proper drainage. <br />Commissioner Ganley asked for a schedule completion date for the field. Wong estimated that <br />the field should be completed by the end of September. <br />Chair Jindra asked about touring the site next month. It was determined that the Commission <br />would meet at the site at 6:30 prior to their next meeting of June 10, 2002, for a walking tour. <br />Commissioner Ganley wondered how possible it was to keep the schedule on track with regard to <br />seeding. Wong stated that the contractors also want to stay on schedule. Wong reviewed the <br />details of the seeding process, and the various increments of time that are required for successful <br />germination. <br />Commissioner Ganley asked Wong if it would be possible to open any portion of the park ahead <br />of schedule. <br />Commissioner Gebhardt stated that they did not want to jeopardize any of the progress on the <br />park, by opening even a portion of the park earlier than anticipated.
